The Iatrogenic Development of an Anterior Cerebral Artery Pseudoaneurysm during Lamina Terminalis Fenestration-Genesis, Diagnosis and Therapy: Lessons Learned.

Intracranial pseudoaneurysms (PSA) are scarcely presented in the literature. We describe the case of an intracranial PSA on the right anterior cerebral artery, which developed during the complicated surgical treatment of a ruptured right middle cerebral aneurysm. The pseudoaneurysm grew over time and was co-incidentally diagnosed 3 months after the original surgery. The PSA was successfully treated by coiling. In cases of vascular injuries during complicated brain surgery, the timely and careful radiological diagnosis of such a lesion is necessary to allow its fast and proper treatment and thus prevent the patient from potential risks.
